Do you know if a monthly MetroCard can be used with PATH?

I don't know if I'd go to Best Buy. I would try a place with a more knowledgable sales force. If you use a Mac, definitely try TekServe. Otherwise, try DataVision or J&R. DataVision is also really close to Bryant Park.

I don't think that you need Time Warner, or any other ISP to be able to use the free wireless broadband that's available all over Manhattan. I don't have a notebook computer, so I'm really not up on it.

And does anyone know anywhere that focuses on Big East basketball - like I know there are bars that promote ACC games, but anyone know anywhere great to chill for Big East games?

I'd contact the
Park Avenue Country Club.

Never been there. I'll have to try it after the City defrosts.
